Upgrading your guitars electronics is a cost-effective way of vastly improving your guitar's sound and ability to shape your tone. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e1950s Les Paul wiring differs from modern wiring primarily in how the tone pots are connected to the volume pots. In 50s wiring, the tone pots are connected to the output of the volume pots, whereas in modern wiring, they are connected to the input of the volume pots. This difference impacts the interaction between the volume and tone controls, affecting the overall tone and how it changes when the volume is rolled back. 1950’s wiring will give you a brighter, more dynamic tone and more interactive controls.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThis upgrade has been built using very high-quality components.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eComponents:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e4 x CG CTS (USA) 500k Pots (Bridge Volume \/ Bridge Tone \u0026amp; Neck Volume \u0026amp; Neck Tone).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e2 x New Vintage RS GuitarCap .022 Paper and Oil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSolid 20 AWG tinned wire\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eEach component has been tested prior to build.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMore details on each of the components below.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSupplied with simple instructions how to install.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eMore details of parts used:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eCTS Premium 500k CG Short Split Shaft Pot 5% + - Tolerance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eThese US pots have been made to custom specs for a high-end guitar parts supplier in the UK.  They feature a solid brass thread and shaft on a Bakelite base plate with a lower turning torque for the right balance between a smoother response and some resistance.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eFeatures:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             5% + - tolerance\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Solid Brass thread and shaft\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Bakelite base plate\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Lowest turning torque offered by CTS for an easier smoother more responsive control.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Easy Solder\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Stainless Steel Dress Washer and Nickel Plated lock washer and nuts\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             24 spline\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             USA Imperial size\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             For 3\/8” (9.5mm) hole\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Length of threaded shaft ~ 9.5mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Shaft diameter - 9.4mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003e•             Base of pot diameter - 23.8mm\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eNew Vintage RS GuitarCap .022 Paper and Oil\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"MsoNormal\"\u003eManufactured to RS specs, these hand-made 100v caps have a rich vintage tone, while still retaining open top-end clarity.
